Thaivivat Insurance review

It is licensed by the Office of Insurance Commission (OIC), Thailand, under registration 8/2516. The Office of Insurance Commission is the Thai body named in that licence, which gives a policyholder a named regulator to approach if a claim or a complaint stalls.

Claims run on phone, so a claim starts with a phone call rather than a web form. Thaivivat is recorded as insurer, so the company that wrote the policy is the one paying the claim, and support on phone and email can pass the paperwork by email.

Prices depend on the vehicle, property and health plan, so compare the spread across the site: the median starting premium is €8.37, the lower quartile €2.92 and the upper quartile €29.72. A single Thaivivat quote depends on the cover chosen and the details supplied.

Support runs on phone and email, so questions can go by phone or by email. Claims are narrower than support, since phone covers the phone line alone, which suits anyone happy to settle a claim by call and email the documents afterwards.

It is an insurer, recorded as insurer, which means Thaivivat underwrites the policies it sells rather than placing them with another carrier. The company has traded since 1951 from its base in Thailand.

Thaivivat's list ends at auto, health and travel. Good Sam Insurance Agency covers auto, home and renters, Hiscox UK covers home, renters and landlord and EuroAsia Insurance covers auto, home and travel, so a life, pet, gadget or renters need points elsewhere.

Households with a car and a health plan to insure, since auto, health and travel come from one company with one claims line. Drivers who travel or own a home can add those policies later, and anyone who prefers a phone conversation to an online claim form will find the setup familiar.
